Cavaliers center Andrew Bynum has been excused from the team to address ''a family medical matter.'' The Cavs said in a release on Tuesday that Bynum, who signed a two-year, free-agent deal with Cleveland this summer, is expected to rejoin the team on Saturday in Washington. The Cavs stayed in Chicago to practice after losing to the Bulls on Tuesday night. The release said Bynum would travel to attend to the matter, but there were no other details. The 7-foot-1 Bynum made his first start of the season against Chicago and scored 11 points with six rebounds in 21 minutes.
